Band Comments

Fan Comments
Brilliant set by the lads with last nights all awaited
line up.

Really good set and per last tour – the lads were out
to rock BC off stage and they did (biased opinion
sorry).
The band were on for 45 minutes instead of 30 minutes
last night and nearly all the crowd watched the lads.
(Katrina Copping, Ipswich)

Mike on stage at 8.00 and opens with Declaration/Marching On, then into
Where Were You and Knife Edge … a short 40ish minute set which also
included, Breathe, Spirit, 68, Blaze, Regeneration and I sure there was at
least one more song.

As ever the MPO fanbase was out in force in the audience ensuring that Mike
went down well, and also a lot of the BC fans were suitably impressed and
watched the whole set, talking to 2 girls on the train home, they had never
seen Mike before but look like converts to the MPO and want to head to the
Norwich show tonight.
